Would Buy One Again, But Next Time The Petrol Version (s3)!! —
Great fun to drive in good and bad weather!
Quattro All Wheel Drive system makes it feel like it is on rails.
Cost of ownership is not too bad either and insurance is less than my old Mazda 3 (1.6 Liter Engine)!!

Pros:
Fun to drive, safe (Quattro) and brilliant gasmileage

Cons:
If you want a family vehicle, don't buy the 3 door (mine) as getting in the back is a pain!

Excellent Car, Does Everything You Expect Of An Audi Hatchback And Then Some More. —
Performance - Goes faster than you expect.
Build Quality - Great (it's an Audi).
Appearance - Looks kinda sedate but gives a few subtle clues.
Cost of Ownership - Not the cheapest car to speed (can't quite call it zipping) around in but it sounds great doing so.
Fun Factor - The fun is being kinda nondescript (you gotta like that sort of thing), even a VW R32 looks more biz.

Awesome A3 —
Amazing acceleration and handling. Typical German build quality, solid and reliable. A little heavy on the fuel, but great to drive. Bose sound system is a real bonus too. This is the fourth Audi I've owned, and it won't be the last.

I Love This Car —
I love this car. It is a hoot to drive, gets reasonable gas mileage and accomplished what I need it do. Styling is great and it has that solid german feel whan I am behind the wheel, It is a lot of fun to drive on both short and long trips

Audi A3 1.9 Tdi —
Nice looking car, very good on the road. Feels like you cannot drive it off the road, or you have to be a total moron in my opinion. Nice interiour also, good mileage if you don't drive too crazy. Even then, still good mileage :-D. A good buy I think!

A3 Sportback 2.0t S-line Special Edition (oettinger Turbo) —
This car was quick to start with, but mine has the Oettinger performance pack which shifts up from an already impressive 200bhp to a screaming 255 - that's 10 more than the 3.2... 0-60 is sub-6 seconds now and it's acceleration and torque is shattering and fuel consumption isn't affected. Audi WHY dont you do this as standard? - Thankfully the haldex-quattro is good enough to give blistering starts even in the wet and it really hangs on around the corners. Mine came as an ex-demo, loaded with toys (such as heated two-tone black & silver leather seats) and the quality (esp of the interior) is superb. Love the RS4-style 18" alloys which really sets the car apart too. So much fun, so little time...

Pros:
A missile for the road, quality throughout, space and pace with a sexy leather interior

High Preformance And Style Combined With Practicality. —
The A3 3.2 S is a beautiful car both inside and out. The two-tone leather and red lighting inside make you truly feel like your in a true sports car. Coupled with the aggressive headlights, stunning wheels and low profile, very few people suspect it is a hatchback.
Performance is excellent as well. Although it isn't to fast off the line, the sound the engine makes is enough to make most people happy. It is great in the turns but the V6 does make it a little heavy footed.
The biggest attribute of this car is its practicality. With the Audi Quattro System, snow and ice is never a factor. Also, the large trunk space and seating capacity make it ideal for bringing people to and fro.

Pros:
-Audi Quattro System-Small, easy to handle-Lots of room for people and cargo inside-Two moon roofs
